Hello everyone, i'm sticked in a problem that i don't know how to solve.
I'm trying to create a system that allow me to create meshes from points or connected lines.
I've been trying with Skin, Trace, connect adjacent, particle fluid surface, but nothing gives me the result i'm searching for.
I was playing with the cross section surface but it gives me a very noisy and disturbed result, vdb and similar can't help me as it has to be a surface (as a t-shirt).
someone that can help me out? thanks

if that's a 2d surface you can feed the points to triangulate2d Sop

otherwise I would love to know too

You're probably interest in techniques like Poisson Surface Reconstruction [doc.cgal.org]? I don't believe Houdini has such a thing built in at this point in time. Maybe the (Labs) AliceVision tools have something like that?
